74: Episode 143: Inciting Meg Elison's Riot

<p></p> <p> </p> <p>Episode 143 is an interview with author Meg Elison. Meg is celebrating two new books - <a href="https://smile.amazon.com/Find-Layla-Meg-Elison-ebook/dp/B0811XMCWL/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=finding+Layla+meg+elison&amp;qid=1588521305&amp;sr=8-1-fkmr0">Find Layla</a> and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Big-Girl-Outspoken-Authors-Elison/dp/1629637831">Big Girl</a>. We have a discussion about creativity during quarantine, whether the apocalypse looks like she imagined it as an author of speculative post-apocalyptic fiction, and the body positive / fat acceptance movements. A good chunk of time was spent discussing writing authentically and inclusively, and how to walk the line as a creator of realistic portrayals of diversity without falling into the pitfalls of stereotypes or problematic tropes. </p> <p> </p> <p>Find more of <a href="http://megelison.com/">Meg Elison here</a>.</p> <p> </p> <p>Patreon supporters heard this show first!
